I have decided to take the LPIC-1, LPIC-2 and UCP, and being unemployed, I have to keep the budget down, therefore I have chosen to do this as a "self-study". I have found tons of material on the...

I'll try to keep that in mind for my future projects.

The portability issues doesn't mind me that much (almost everyone I know uses Ubuntu anyway), but my programs have a tendency to get larger...

It this because of possible problems with portability?

I mostly do small PyGtk apps, so my code is already limited in choice of os.

Great :-) just what I need.

this is my final code (the interesting part):


serverip = ("192.168.1.10")
tid = time.time()

while True:
#if not found in 60sec then show error

Thank you both for your suggestions.

This is my first futile attempt that kind'a works:


tid = time.time()

while True:
if time.time() > tid + 0.20:
status = ("OFLINE")

I'm trying to make a fairly simple app in PyGtk.

I use Bluefish myself, but Netbeans looks very promising.

I have made a rather clumsy solution to my problem :redface:

Hi all

I'm working on a python-frontend to the grub2 theme-file, I call it grub2l (or just grubtool).

I have a combobox where you can select the font-color, and when the program is loaded, I do...

yay... they are finaly up again \\:D/

I did have "import os" but the xterm did the trick.

Thanks :-D

thanks, but I kind'a like the minimalistic way gksudo ask for authorization.
Does pkexec behave like gksudo ? (if i do a gksudo it remember the authorization and the next gksudo will not prompt for...

It's a Python program with a gui and I don't want the whole program to run as root only the things that require it.

Can someone please tell me why this doesn't work :

os.system('gksudo "cp -f /home/sandie/Desktop/folder/* /home/sandie/Desktop"')

I can do this :

os.system("cp -f...

That would be SO cool :biggrin:

I'm also new to Python and have a similar problem with hanging scripts, so I made this little python-app i call : Reload

Got it :-)

Thank you all for helping.

I still haven't been able to figure out why ps return the correct line in a terminal and a "0" in the script ?




Looks nice and simple, but it doesn't seam to be...

Thanks, this looks promising.

Can't understand why this doesn't work thou :

self.command_entry.set_text('programX')
process_name = ('[p]ython '+'"'+ self.command_entry.get_text() +'"')...

If I do :

ps -ef | grep python programX
I get :

grep: programX: No such file or directory

I still don't know how to get the pid of a process called
"python ./programX"

I would like to kill a python script that is run from within another python script, while keeping the original script running.

example:

programX has a virtual terminal where I launch programY....

I found this how-to : http://showmedo.com/videotutorials/video?name=linuxJensMakingDeb

Now my .deb actually works with GDebi, but it is only usable as root ?
The .deb installed it in...

Cool 8-)

Sorry... but I don't get it, please elaborate
